Older iPad to iPad pro email transfer question?

Husband used iTunes and transferred all of my info from older iPad to new iPad pro tonight. Everything transferred except my email folders. The only thing I have on the pro is any new email coming in. There is no longer a sent folder, no trash folder, everything that was flagged or vip folders also not there. Please, what are we missing? We are 60....haha...so be gentle to the technically challenged! Thanks much!

Welcome to iMore! Folder settings are usually handled remotely by the email service so it's odd that you're missing some of them. I believe your VIP folder, on the other hand, is handled by your device.
I can't help but think your new email account just wasn't set up properly. I recommend going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then selecting your email account then selecting Delete Account. Once that process is completed add it back in by tapping on Add Account on that same screen and following the prompts.
As Peligro911 stated, we might be able to give you better help if we know who your email provider is.
